Abstract

This article deals with RFID technology, which is a part of automatic identification and data capture. Nowadays, the identification of items in logistic sector is carried through barcodes. In this article we would like to specify, how items can be located in metal container, identified in the transmission process of logistics chain by UHF RFID technology. All results are verified by measurement in our AIDC laboratory, which is located at the University of Žilina. Our research contains of 12 different types of orientation tags and antennas and more than 1000 tests. Our identification performance was close to 100 %. All tested items have been located in metal container. The results of our research bring the new point of view and indicate the ways of using UHF RFID technology in logistic applications. The utilization of the RFID technology in logistics chain is characterized at the end of this article.
